Mom Testimonials

5 stars
"Moms with Benefits has brought me peace of mind when it comes to preparing for maternity leave through my state and my jobs. The website guided me to see what I can get and apply for and every time I have messaged with extra questions I received details answers with links to help me navigate through the trenches of maternity leave! I honestly don’t know what I would have done without them. I found them just in time. Also, the podcast is awesome. I listen weekly and the different guests that share personal insight is so raw and real and I’m so into it!"
